As the cozy nights settle in Columbia and the breathtaking Northern Lights dance across the sky, it seems that nature is wrapping up the final notes of autumn. The hummingbirds have flown south, and we welcome the buzzing bees that have swarmed in, perhaps to usher in the sweetness of the upcoming holiday season. But, what truly signals that the holiday spirit is upon us? It’s the eagerly awaited Junior League of Columbia’s annual Holiday Market!
Mark your calendars, folks! From December 5–8, this beloved event will transform the South Carolina State Fairgrounds into a festive shopping extravaganza! The Cantey and Goodman buildings will showcase over 100 unique merchants from across the country, offering everything from handcrafted goodies to the latest holiday trends. Whether you’re hunting for gifts for loved ones or maybe a little something for yourself, this might be the perfect place to find it!
As the Junior League of Columbia celebrates its 100th year of service, the Holiday Market remains a highlight of the year. This event isn’t just about shopping; it’s a major fundraiser that raises over $250,000 each year to support the League’s mission of boosting the health and well-being of families and children in the Midlands. It’s a great way to give back while indulging in some retail therapy. Isn’t it wonderful when shopping also supports a good cause?
This year, shoppers will have the opportunity to dive into a variety of special events along with their shopping spree. Although tickets for the popular Ladies Night Out on Thursday night are already sold out (you’ve got to hustle for those), there are still plenty of other fun options available.
Here’s a quick rundown of what you can expect:
The Holiday Market is more than just a shopping spree; it’s a celebration of the community, of local art and craft, and of the spirit of giving. Thousands of shoppers flock here each year to enjoy the festive atmosphere and find unique gifts. So gather your family and friends, and get ready for a delightful day out!
